The data sovereignty initiatives have been massively promoted by US policy. All this advocacy will achieve is make the US look even less trustworthy.

The US military budget hasn't been reduced and the adventurism is going on as strong as ever, so that doesn't seem to be the reason.

Not just non-Apple devices. I have a machine with older MacOS and the current Apple keyboard doesn't report battery status. I can't think of a reason why that would work differently from Apple's own older keyboards, but it does.

I think the passthrough is more useful when there's a VR OS to take advantage of it (map your real room/hands/kb/screen onto VR, let you pin stuff, etc.) and I'm not sure Valve is even planning to do that, or anyone is on the Linux side of things (?)

They themselves are the best at doing it, really.

Or they'd have looked at whatever images the system had used for its decision and see it was a false positive without having to send anyone over.

Just about anything that has a repl has a better repl than Python.

The main reason I voted against was because it is tied to smartphones with only the vaguest promise that it won't stay so. Ironically one of the arguments in favor was independence from megacorporations (or foreign countries for that matter). But you couldn't find this point in the main opposition website. The opposition was very weak with weak arguments and the parliament was massively in favor.

I think a squat format like 4:5 would be much more practical than 9:16 or whatever most phones are. It's unfortunate that's the format that's come to dominate, especially when you consider the rise of vertical video.

The vector version of these is used in antenna theory to represent and transform the radiation of finite sources, like when measuring antenna patterns.

The biggest roadblocks are 1) lack of continued effort and 2) reticence on the Emacs side. I'd say 1) is the most important by far.

I've seen left handed people tilt the paper 90° and write more or less downwards. Their writing looked fine.

My bank's app has a built in messaging system, but they seem to hate using it themselves. When they want to contact me they always call, or they send me paper letters. If I contact them through the app, they don't reply there but call me about it. It's bizarre.

Apple sells a wire. It's $300.

BLIS is a different library from BLAS, with a better API. For example when you pass an array, you can pass independent strides for all axes, and you can give independent transpose/conjugate flags. It does have a BLAS compatibility interface.

The interface isn't perfect though. For example they didn't commit to supporting zero strides. That used to work anyway, but it's broken now for some archs.

if you compare the c64 palette to other ~16 color computers of the era, the c64 has a definite brownish/purplish tint to it, i don't think the video misrepresents it.

in the text modes of old computers, there isn't anything to separate one character from those next to it, so that space has to be in the character itself.

That's why I put the speed in quotes. I get about 900 Mbps both ways on my computer that has only a 1 Gbps port.

I pay about that for ‘10 Gbps’ in CH. I don't even have a machine with a 10 Gbps port, but there isn't anything cheaper here that makes sense.
